Power Progression

Stage / Realm / Level	Chapter	Notes
Level 34	48	Breaks through after poison analysis, battlefield control at the dock, and enduring a Soul Emperor's killing intent culminate in a successful wrist lock.
Ice-and-fire body tempering	63 76	Takes the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot together to use the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well for tempering. His later Blue Silver Grass displays a blue-and-red sheen.
Level 40	93	Reaches the threshold after defeating Feng Xiaotian's Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes with the Clear Sky Hammer. Still requires a fourth ring to become a Soul Ancestor.
Level 41 — Four-Ring Soul Ancestor	97	Absorbs a Cave Demon Spider's ring. His rings become yellow, yellow, purple, and black; gains Blue Silver Cage.
Level 52 — Blue Silver Emperor Second Awakening	127	The awakening completely changes his appearance. Both the awakened Martial Soul and level 52 are confirmed by this point.
Level 59	128	Returns for the Shrek reunion with the Blue Silver Emperor and experience from Slaughter City.
Level 60 threshold	137	Breaks through while recovering from Qian Renxue's mental and physical attacks. Still needs a sixth ring.
Sixth Soul Skill: Void	145	A sixth ring is shown granting three seconds of immunity to physical attacks and greatly reducing energy damage.
Level 59 — Five rings, as subsequently depicted	183	The Star Dou encirclement passages again explicitly identify him as level 59 with five rings.
Level 63 — Sixth ring: Hollow Ghost Vine	187	Absorbs the sixty-three-thousand-year Hollow Ghost Vine ring, passing through levels 60–62 to reach 63. Gains Blue Silver Void Realm.

Below level 70 — Power loss	238	Returns Xiao Wu's sacrifice ring and right arm bone to revive her. His power falls through levels 77, 75, and 72, then below 70; the seventh ring remains but cannot activate his true body.
Replacement sixth ring	242	Absorbs a ten-thousand-year black whale ring, filling the sixth-ring vacancy. Blue Silver True Body becomes usable again; no resulting level is specified.
Level 80 — Eighth ring obtained	250 251	Enters the fifth trial with an eighth ring. Its Sea Vine Demon Octopus power gives his roots greater resilience under tension.
Level 83	251	Reaches rank 83 after two months of recovery, then extracts the Sea God Trident and completes the seventh trial.
Clear Sky Hammer — Sixth ring	252	Absorbs the Deep-Sea Ironclad Turtle's black ring. The influx clashes with the Blue Silver Emperor's meridians and requires half a month of recovery.
Clear Sky Hammer — Seventh ring	252	Becomes able to fully manifest Clear Sky True Body.
Level 90; Clear Sky Hammer completed to nine rings	252	Reaches level 90 before the final hunt. His last two hammer rings come from a seventy-thousand-year Seafloor Rock Jiao and an eighty-thousand-year Black-Shelled Abyssal Turtle. The Blue Silver Emperor's ninth position remains empty.

Sixth-ring continuity: The supplied passages present different sequences. A sixth-ring Void ability appears in chapter 145, but chapters 183–187 return to a five-ring, level-59 Tang San acquiring Blue Silver Void Realm. Later passages again identify his sixth ring as Xiao Wu's sacrifice ring. These descriptions are recorded separately rather than treated as one uninterrupted progression 145 183 187 202 203.

Background / History

Early Shrek Training

Tang San initially relies heavily on Hidden Weapons and the Mysterious Heaven Skill, treating Blue Silver Grass mainly as a restraint. Bai Jin exposes the weakness of this approach by repeatedly breaking his grass and drilling precise, simultaneous control. Tang San learns that a control-type Soul Master must control himself as well as his opponents 9 11.

His training expands into direct combat and rescue work. During the Old City operation, he gives up an opportunity to cripple the Blood Spider Soul Emperor so he can shield captive children and dismantle the array imprisoning them. After the Old Canal mission, he acknowledges that he needs faster Formation Core identification and more experience fighting head-on 30 34 35.

Bloodline Pursuit and the Medicine Garden

Evil Soul Masters repeatedly target Tang San's blood, leaving him disturbed that strangers seem to know more about his heritage than he does. Captured pursuers eventually reveal a bounty from Slaughter City for Blue Silver Emperor Blood and the location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well 49 62.

His poison expertise brings him into contact with Dugu Bo. Tang San offers to investigate ways to suppress the poison afflicting Dugu Bo and potentially his granddaughter, while promising not to take plants from the Medicine Garden without permission. He later distributes suitable Immortal Herbs to his teammates and chooses the paired ice-and-fire herbs for himself 56 58 63.

Academy Tournament

Tang San develops a more mobile style, using Blue Silver Grass to reposition himself rather than remaining stationary behind restraints. Against Huo Wu, he redirects the edge of her powerful fire attack instead of trying to block it outright. In a later encounter, he shields her from her own rebounding fireball, suffering burns and damage to the Eight Spider Lances 73 76 92.

His victory over Feng Xiaotian publicly reveals the Clear Sky Hammer and his twin Martial Souls. Salas immediately attempts to question him, but Bai Jin intervenes. Tang San subsequently gains his black fourth ring and uses individually controlled cages to divide an opposing team during the finals 93 94 97 103.

Against Demon Charm, he combines hammer strikes, Blue Silver Grass, and the Eight Spider Lances to survive Full Moon long enough to reconnect with his teammates. Their support allows him to keep fighting despite extensive injuries. Tang Hao later appears on Papal Mountain, bringing Tang San face-to-face with the father he has not seen since leaving Holy Soul Village at six 110 111 112 114 117.

Awakening and Return

After the Blue Silver Emperor's Second Awakening, Tang San becomes so different in appearance that his former teammates do not recognize him at their reunion. His time in Slaughter City also leaves him more practiced at concealing attacks and carries over into his use of Divine Slaughter's Domain 127 128 132.

He fights Qian Renxue after refusing her attempt to recruit him. Despite using both Martial Souls, Hidden Weapons, domains, and the Eight Spider Lances, he is overpowered by her angelic abilities. Bai Jin stops the sword thrust that would have struck his neck 131 132.

Tang Sect and Star Dou Operations

Tang San founds the Tang Sect and travels to Gengxin City to purchase metals for expanded Hidden Weapon production. There, he helps uncover an underground furnace and frees hostages while fighting its guards without killing them. A ledger recovered afterward supplies a lead on Ten-Thousand-Year Sacred Soul Grass, one of the materials needed to revive Xiao Wu 155 157 158 182.

During the later Star Dou encirclement, Tang San and Xiao Wu dismantle an eighteen-person Soul-Locking Net through coordinated attacks on its junctions. He then disrupts three Soul Saints' combined assault, exploiting their positioning until their armor, chains, and poison interfere with one another 183.

Sea God Trials and Xiao Wu's Revival

On Sea God Island, Tang San completes the first trial at the 333rd step. The second trial disables his ring skills while leaving his domains, Soul Bones, Tang Sect techniques, and Soul Power available. He adapts his leadership accordingly, helping all six participating companions cross the Ring Sea without killing a Sea Soul Beast 198 202 225.

Reviving Xiao Wu requires him to return the power she gave him through sacrifice. Removing her ring and right arm bone costs him levels, disables Blue Silver True Body, and leaves a serious arm injury. During their subsequent recovery, he begins asking for help and training within his present limits rather than continually risking his life 203 238 239 240.

He fills the vacant sixth-ring position, completes the Sacred Pillar battles, and later extracts the Sea God Trident. None of these achievements erases his old wounds. Further hunts develop the Clear Sky Hammer to nine rings, but the strain between his two Martial Souls forces him to regulate their use and carefully repair damaged meridians 242 250 251 252.

Appearance

Before awakening: Identified retrospectively as the dark-haired boy from the academy tournament 127.
After the Blue Silver Emperor's Second Awakening: Tall and slender, with a composed bearing and a face his former teammates cannot recognize 127 128.
Later appearance: Long dark-blue hair falling behind his shoulders; noticeably taller than during his earlier Shrek years 181.
Lasting injuries: Scars and recurring pain in his right arm remain after returning Xiao Wu's Soul Bone. He wears a wrist guard over the scar during the Sacred Pillar trials 250 252.

Personality

Tang San is patient, observant, and intensely disciplined. In early training, he waits for an opponent's impatience to create an opening and practices alone in heavy rain. His manners remain respectful without becoming servile, even before senior figures such as Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong 5 9 14.

His caution can become excessive: he habitually observes, judges, and withholds trump cards before acting. Bai Jin's training pushes him to recognize situations that will not wait for the safest answer. He also accepts blunt criticism when it exposes a genuine weakness, including his dependence on Hidden Weapons 11 35 73.

Protecting others increasingly takes precedence over a clean victory. He shields children before attacking their captor, rescues Huo Wu despite their rivalry, and uses precise nonlethal force during later operations. His devotion to Xiao Wu is particularly strong, repeatedly placing him between her and danger 30 92 139 157 180.

After Xiao Wu's revival, his protective behavior becomes less controlling. He accepts help, respects the limits of his injured body, and stops deciding on Xiao Wu's behalf whether she should join a hunt 240 250 252.

Abilities & Skills

Twin Martial Souls

Tang San combines the Blue Silver Emperor's battlefield control with the Clear Sky Hammer's direct attacking power 94 132.

The hammer initially has no rings, relying on its exceptional weight and Tang San's technique 93 97.
Later hammer-ring absorption causes the two Martial Souls' power to collide within his chest and meridians 252.
Alternating between them reduces the immediate conflict, but he still has to repair the damage himself 252.

Blue Silver Grass / Blue Silver Emperor

His plant Martial Soul develops from simple restraints into a system for protection, mobility, sensing, and coordinated battlefield control 11 30 76 193.

Skill / Application	Function and Limits
Entanglement	Binds opponents and provides leverage for Tang San's own movement. He also layers restraints to delay incoming attacks 128 132.
Spider Web Restraint	Produces web-like restraints; Tang San hides its sticky toxin within outer layers of Entanglement 93 132.
Blue Silver Cage / Blue Silver Soul Power Cage	The fourth skill forms sturdy cages at selected positions. He uses it to separate teams, build shields, and obstruct weapon paths rather than only imprison people 97 103 111 128.
Blue Silver Overlord Spear	Fifth-ring attack that compresses vines into a blue-gold spear with powerful piercing force 132 157.
Blue Silver Void Realm	Sixth skill documented after the Hollow Ghost Vine absorption. Vines phase through one solid barrier for three breaths, then become solid again. It does not make Tang San himself intangible 187.
Blue Silver True Body	Seventh skill links him with surrounding plants, extends control, and improves strength, regeneration, and Soul Power efficiency 193 226.
Sea Vine Demon Octopus ring enhancement	Gives roots the resilience to recoil after being pulled taut, helping him move with and recover against powerful currents 251.

Rescue and support: Pulls allies out of danger, shields hostages, carries injured creatures, and relays teammates' support power 30 107 111 226.
Environmental sensing: Receives signals through grass and roots, including movement across a clearing 83 193.
Resource management: Dismisses individual cages as soon as they are no longer needed instead of sustaining every restraint at full cost 103.
Weaknesses: Fire repeatedly burns through his earlier grass; Qian Renxue's Angel Domain suppresses the awakened Martial Soul's vitality 76 132.

Clear Sky Hammer and Hammer Techniques

The Clear Sky Hammer supplies the force needed when restraints and defensive Soul Bones cannot stop an opponent 93 111.

Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer: Borrows force from collisions and stacks it into progressively heavier blows. Its rhythm must remain intact, and Tang San must withstand the accumulating strain 111.
Chaotic Cloak: Forty-nine accumulated strikes converge into the blow that splits the Hollow Ghost Vine's main root 187.
Precision attacks: Strikes the point where the Ice Phoenix's two Soul Power streams meet rather than attacking Shui Bing'er or Xue Wu directly 86.
Clear Sky True Body: Fully available after obtaining the hammer's seventh ring 252.
Physical limits: Sustained hammerwork aggravates his right-arm injury, and overwhelming opponents can interrupt his buildup before a third strike 132 250.

Tang Sect Techniques

Technique	Documented Use
Mysterious Heaven Skill	Circulates and directs internal power, dismantles array nodes, guides absorbed plant power, and redistributes dangerous ring pressure 34 187 242.
Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track	Evasive footwork used to slip through attacks, cross vine-filled terrain, and enter close range 30 132 187.
Mysterious Jade Hand	Deflects attacks, controls wrists and joints, and allows him to handle an opponent's Poison Powder barehanded 93 128 157 183.
Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon	Manipulates opponents' movement; used to slam two Soul Emperors into each other 157.
Hidden Weapon techniques	Places projectiles along escape routes, exploits minute openings, and targets formation components 9 132 183.

Purple Demon Eye and Mental Defense

Purple Demon Eye supports both combat observation and illusion-breaking 73 83 132.

Tracks footwork and extremely small openings, including a slight delay in Qian Renxue's wing movement 73 132.
Exposes visual inconsistencies in an illusion involving a woman he instinctively feels close to 83.
Distinguishes differing Soul Power flows inside the Soul-Locking Net to identify its weaker junction 183.
The mental enhancement from Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew protects him when Hu Liena's Spiritual Shock briefly disrupts his hammer rhythm 111.
Qian Renxue's mental attack still overwhelms his gathered mental power and injures him 132.

Domains

Divine Slaughter's Domain: Spreads icy killing intent, protects his consciousness during ring absorption, and briefly slows Salas's constricting Spiked Halo 132 183 187.
Blue Silver Domain: Draws life force from surrounding plants, communicates with plant consciousness, and helps guide the Hollow Ghost Vine's power without destroying its essence 132 187.
Trial availability: Both domains remain usable when the second Sea God Trial disables his Soul Ring skills 202.

Poison and Medicinal Knowledge

Tang San's poison knowledge does not originate from Grandmaster's Soul Master theory. It becomes integrated with his Martial Soul, Hidden Weapons, and control style 56.

Identifies traces of Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison on Dugu Bo's invitation 38.
Explains plant properties and proposes suppressing Dugu Bo's poison without promising a cure 58.
Selects Immortal Herbs suited to teammates' Martial Souls 63.
Uses poison resistance while fighting Huo Wu, and handles Poison Powder during the Star Dou encirclement 76 183.

Formation Analysis and Close Combat

Bai Jin trains Tang San to remain effective without Hidden Weapons or conventional restraint tactics 9 35.

Uses punches, wrist locks, joint control, and shoulder strikes to interrupt opponents at close range 9 30 48 157 183.
Inserts Blue Silver Grass into array gaps to pry open Soul Power nodes 34.
Seeds the Soul-Locking Net's Link Rings from within, bypassing its ability to corrode vines attacking from outside 183.
Exploits opponents' coordination rather than attempting to overpower each of them individually 183.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

Eight Spider Lances — External Soul Bone used for stabbing, bracing, mobility, defense, poison delivery, and devouring Soul Power. It heals under Soul Power nourishment but can crack or be severed by sufficiently strong attacks 86 93 111 140 187.
Spiritual skull bone — Helps him withstand the Hollow Ghost Vine's mental assault during absorption 187.

Bone-Piercing Nails and Needles — Precision Hidden Weapons used against vulnerable points and, later, to deliver Blue Silver Emperor Seeds onto formation junctions 132 183.
Dragon Whisker Needles — Sixteen needles contract inside the Hollow Ghost Vine's main root before the hammer strike 187.

Bai Jin — Senior mentor and protector. Rebuilds Tang San's control fundamentals, discourages overdependence on Hidden Weapons, and intervenes against threats ranging from Salas's questioning to Qian Renxue's finishing blow 11 35 94 132.
Tang Hao — Father. Tang San reunites with him on Papal Mountain after years of imagining that meeting; his father's hammer instruction becomes a stabilizing rhythm during the fight in the Red Mist 111 117.
Grandmaster — Teacher. Recognizes the potential of Tang San's poison-based path, worries about dangerous ring absorption, and cautions him against publicly using the Clear Sky Hammer 56 94 97.
Dai Mubai — Shrek teammate whom Tang San calls “Boss Dai.” Provides front-line openings during rescue operations and later helps him recover after ring absorption 34 128 193.
Ning Rongrong — Teammate whose boosts and connection through Blue Silver Grass support major battles. She praises him in a letter to Ning Fengzhi 14 111 183 242.
Oscar — Teammate and recovery support. Supplies sausages during combat and guards Tang San while he absorbs the replacement sixth ring 111 183 242.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ma Hongjun — Teammates and training opponents. Their ambushes and flanking attacks help expose weaknesses in his close-combat control 35.
Dugu Bo — Poison expert and Medicine Garden owner. Tang San offers to investigate his poison condition and earns access to the garden while respecting its owner's terms 56 58 63.
Huo Wu — Tournament rival whom he saves from a rebounding fire attack, taking serious burns in her place 76 92 93.
Feng Xiaotian — Rival whose Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes push Tang San to reveal the Clear Sky Hammer. They acknowledge each other's strength after the match 93.
Qian Renxue — Attempts to recruit him, then defeats him when he refuses. Bai Jin prevents her from killing him afterward 131 132.
